University lecturer used his son’s naked photos to try to get teenage girl to send naked pictures online

A GRANDFATHER who photoshopped his own face onto his son’s naked body to seduce a 15-year-old girl online has been exposed as a university lecturer, according to an investigation by A Current Affair on the Nine Network.
The man, who called himself ‘Richard Martin’ online, groomed the teenager for three years before she found out the truth about his age.
“He was grooming me on the internet, and he did a lot of things a man of 50 should not be doing,” Susannah told ACA.
“It really hurt. I don’t think I've fully grasped the pain levels from what happened.”

The online grooming took place over a three-year period, in which “Richard” sent Susannah lurid emails containing sexual references, before eventually asking her to strip for him on live camera.
“I undress you and look at you naked,” he wrote under the pseudonym Earthlover. “What are you wearing?”

Over time, ‘Richard’ became confident enough to regularly ask Susannah for naked photos.
“He did this quite a few times over the course of our relationship,” she said.
“There were all these sexual things that went on the internet, with messaging — it was quite explicit. I was 15.”
To fool Susannah that he was also a teenager, ‘Richard’ sent her photographs of his young son, pretending they were of him. One of the photos featured his son naked.
“He told me he was 17-years-old,” Susannah said.
By the time she was 16, ‘Richard’ was asking Susannah to undress online. If she refused or did not comply with some other request, “Richard” would threaten to block her and to never talk to her again.
“I didn’t buy a light bulb which he asked me to buy to go on the webcam with better lighting, and he’s sending me emails counting down that in ‘20 minutes I will delete you, and you will not be able to contact me’.”

“Richard” would also threaten to talk to other girls if Susannah did not send him naked photos when he asked for them.
“I know he was communicating with other teenagers. Sometimes he'd threaten me that he would leave me and get with one of them if I didn’t do something,” Susannah told ACA.
“Looking back on it all now, it just seems so creepy”.
Throughout their relationship, Susannah asked to meet her “online boyfriend”, who always refused.
When she was 18, ‘Richard’ asked Susannah to marry him even though he was already married.
“The first man I ever fell in love with and had a three-year relationship with was 50 years old, and you can't get back your first true love,” Susannah said.
Inspired by the MTV showCatfish, Susannah eventually turned to website socialcatfish.com which helped people who met on the internet discover if their partners were who they said they were.
“For a small fee, they promised to find anyone with the most basic of information. So I gave them some money And within 48 hours, they sent me an email saying they found his real identity.”
When cornered by ACA journalists, the man denied he had groomed Susannah for years, or asked her to send naked photos.
“Absolutely not ... This isn’t true. I’m very surprised by this.”
But during a phone conversation with Susannah — filmed and shown on ACA — ‘Richard’ confessed to all.
“I can’t believe that he lied to me for three years,” Susannah said tearfully.
“I don’t know what to believe anymore.”
Susannah has since spoken to the police.

Fans turn on Beyonce for vegan diet plug

BEYONCE has been slammed for touting her new vegan diet as major news. The global pop star said she was desperate to tell the world a secret in a heavily-promoted teaser for an upcoming interview on US breakfast program Good Morning America.
“Beyonce has something amazing she wants you to know,” the dramatic promotional clip promised.
“This is something I have to share with everyone,” she said. Speculation grew of a new album, a concert, or even a new baby on the way.
But what was hyped as a big announcement turned out to be just a publicity stunt to promote her new vegan meal delivery service, The 22-Day Revolution.

The 33-year-old is now facing a major backlash, with fans spamming her Instagram account with emojis of French fries, burgers, drumsticks and doughnuts.
The “Bootylicious” singer, who released her fifth solo album with no warning straight to iTunes in 2013, was also criticised on Twitter.
“Beyonce dropped a whole album and collection of videos like a thief in the night but wants to make an announcement about her diet?” Byrd tweeted.
Other members of the Beyhive — the adopted name of the singer’s loyal fanbase — were similarly unimpressed.
“Beyonce did not wake us up early on a Monday to tell us we need to eat more rabbit food,” V tweeted.

“How is Beyonce going to tell me to be a vegan when her and Nicki was feeding each other burgers in the Feelin Myself music video?” Benadryl tweeted.
During the TV interview Beyonce insisted her weight loss was thanks to a new meal plan devised by her trainer Marco Borges.
“I’m not naturally the thinnest, I have curves, I’m proud of my curves, and I have struggled from a young age with diets,” she said.
“(But after adopting a plant-based diet), I felt like my skin was really firm. A lot tighter than when I deprived myself of food and got the weight off fast. And the weight stayed off.”
